#1 "P" clips

Post by vipergts » Mon Jun 20, 2011 10:03 pm

Anyone happen to know where I can get "P" clips from.

I bought some a year or so ago and can't remember where from.

I don't want the horrid rubber surrounded jobbies bit the gold zinc plated ones.

For anyone that is not familiar they're the clips that generally hold the wiring harness in place.

The looms should be held in place underbonnet etc by strapping which is slotted and punched and which has studs which go through the holes . The beauty of these is that you can undo and/or adjust them easily. Kits sufficient to do the entire car available from the usuals including Hutsons and cost bugger all

Thanks ChrisC....Great work

Christopher.......The straps you mention I have used on my V12. They may or may not also use them on the 6 cyl cars but P clips are also used in many places

Thanks Guys
